Hi John,

From: http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/IEFAQ.htm
----------------------------------------------------
When you click the Internet Explorer icon, window may flash a second and quits. Or, it may show an Error-Reporting dialog. This may be due to a malware Browser Helper Object which causes Internet Explorer process to terminate. If you see the Error-Reporting dialog, click "to see what data this report contains" and identify the Module Name causing this error. Temporary solution is to disable third-party browser extensions in Internet Explorer and enable IE functionality:

1. Click Start, Run, type Control Inetcpl.cpl
2. Click the Advanced tab.
3. Under Browsing, clear the Enable third-party browser extensions (requires restart) check box.
4. Restart Internet Explorer.

*Then, you need to eliminate the malware*.

Hi, All,
I am using XP home edition. I have two other accounts besides owner account,
and IE works just fine at owner account. However, IE cann't be opened at
other accounts. When I open IE at other accounts, I will  get error, and IE
automatically shut down. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
